My friend Luke decided to run the Mexican 1000 on a frakenbike this year. The Mexican 1000 is a 4 day 1200 mile race down the Baja peninsula. It starts in Mexicali and ends in San Jose del Cabo. So Luke builds a Honda CB 550/650 with a DRZ 400 front end and a homemade swingarm and subframe.

This will give you an idea, taken just a couple of days before packing up and heading south.

Well Luke needed someone to drive the Chase vehicle and I volunteered me and my 4Runner. You can see it here loaded up sitting in the parking lot at the border. You can also see my other buddies 99 Subaru outback that he is racing this year.

This is a limited size trip! Only 3 more spots available! There will be days with long drives, exploration, relaxation and remote camping. You'll need to be prepared for everything. The trails will require a well prepared and maintained vehicle. Make sure you have a good towing insurance policy. We may also discourage you from going if your vehicle isn't properly equipped.

I posted a last-minute trip to hit up TSF on Saturday, since it looked like a relatively nice weekend and I wanted to get out for some nice, easy trail riding. Mike Weiler said he was in, set the meet time for 10 am at the Shell station, and in the morning I loaded up the recovery gear and my

The coast to coast road trip across America came about when my brother Sam received his honorable discharge from the Army. He had served 4 years in active duty including a "tour" in Afghanistan and was finally free! We had talked on the phone about his plan to drive across country in his Mitsubishi Montero stuffed full of his belongings to Oregon. He thought it would be more fun to have someone
